Comment on Nothing More Than Feelings by David Sparks https://craiglelandsparks.com/2016/10/22/nothing-more-than-feelings/comment-page-1/#comment-54

“We can do better. Our children deserve a consistent intellectual foundation. Facts are things that are true. Opinions are things we believe. Some of our beliefs are true. Others are not. Some of our beliefs are backed by evidence. Others are not. Value claims are like any other claims: either true or false, evidenced or not. The hard work lies not in recognizing that at least some moral claims are true but in carefully thinking through our evidence for which of the many competing moral claims is correct. That’s a hard thing to do. But we can’t sidestep the responsibilities that come with being human just because it’s hard.”

I am thinking though how this logic might apply to beliefs.

Are all beliefs, like feelings, important and irrelvant at the same time? Alice in the mirror?

Comment on South Africa: Prisons by PrayThroughHistory https://craiglelandsparks.com/2016/06/01/south-africa-prisons/comment-page-1/#comment-46
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 14:10:19 +0000http://craiglelandsparks.com/2016/06/01/south-africa-prisons/#comment-46I had a similar experience in E. Europe in early 90’s. We were led by a priest who spent 16yrs fir his faith into the exact prison where he did his time. His heart was amazing! Several times I caught him prsying under his breath; “Thanks that I can visit You today Lord!” No fear, just love for men doing time.
